Chapter Fifteen" Baby?" David whispered to Clive's ear but Clive didn't make any motion. David shook his gently. " Clive wake up please. Honey please I know you can hear me. I mean it's six AM you're awake at this time so don't pretend with me please. Wake you Clive." Clive still didn't move. His eyes were still closed. His back facing David. David frowned. " So you really won't wake up huh?" David got up from bed he walked to the other side of the bed where Clive's face was facing. He knelt with his knees on the floor and leaned towards Clive to give him a kiss on his forehead. He couldn't kiss him though because just when his lips were about to reach Clive's forehead Clive decided to change sleeping positions. Instead of his side now he was sleeping on his back. David blinked, his mouth in a twist as he knew that Clive was very much awake but just toying with him. Any other day David would have had the time for Clive's games. But he truly didn't have the time
Chapter Sixteen It was Easter Sunday. Everyone was merry and gay in Kenneth's house. Everything had worked for good and things were happening just as Kenneth wanted them. He wanted to give Ezula the world and he was starting little by little. "The meat is getting grilled here!" Clive shouted excited as he walked to David who was busy with the meat. "I didn't know you were this crazy." Andrew laughed at his driver as he took another swing of the beer. He and June had been invited by Clive to come join them for the holiday. And they gladly agreed. They flew to the quiet village to honour Clive's invitation. Andrew was more than happy to see more of Clive's family. It was something he had yearned to see for a while. That and the village Clive had been fond of so much. He could see why. The place was beautiful. With beautiful people. It was very intriguing place just like the one that came out of it. It explained a lot about Clive's personality. "Clive". David shivered as Cliv
A woman is running away in a hailstorm. She doesn't even care that she doesn't have anything warm on. She doesn't even have any shoes, she's just running with her all. She runs so much until she stops out of exhaustion in the middle of the snow filled road. She is breathing heavily as she cries out from the pain that she's feeling inside. "Why? What did I ever do wrong to deserve this huh?!" Why her all the time? Why did she always have to have such bad luck in this thing called life.Why couldn't she be happy and allowed to be happy for once. Why couldn't she have her happily ever after? Why did everything have to be so difficult for her? Just as she thought she had found her prince charming. Just when she had thought she had finally gotten her happiness for once this happened. Andrew turned out to be a liar... He turned out to be just like everyone else. He betrayed her.After all the promises he made her. After all the love he had claimed to have for her. He still hurt her. She h
It was Christmas Eve, and the snow was falling thick and fast outside. A lone figure stood in the street, looking up at the sparkling lights on the houses around them. This was not just any figure, though. This was Andrew, a man who had made his fortune in the stock market, and was now one of the richest people in the world. But he wasn't feeling very rich right now. In fact, he was feeling rather lonely.He had no one at home right now. He had no family he could call his. No one to love, no one to love him. Andrew's family had been very wealthy, but they had also been very cold and distant. His parents had never been very affectionate, and they had always expected him to follow in their footsteps and become a successful businessman. He had done that, but it had come at a cost. He had lost touch with his childhood friends, and he had never really had time for a relationship. Now, on Christmas Eve, he was alone in the cold, surrounded by strangers who were celebrating with their famil
May June is a single mother living with her four year old daughter Lady and her little brother Mason.She works hard to keep her family afloat but she's so overworked that she doesn't even get the time to spend with her own family.She wishes could have just one day that she could have to just herself and her family. But she knew that money was much more important than wishes. She needed to keep working.June looked at the clock on the wall of her tiny apartment and sighed. The night shift at the diner was always the longest shift. She'd been up since 5am and now it was nearing midnight. She still had more cleaning to do before she could even think about going to sleep. She put on a smile and went over to her daughter's bedroom. Lady was fast asleep but Mason was still tossing and turning. "Mase, what's the matter buddy?" she asked as she sat down on the edge of his bed.Mason peeked at her with one eye. "Buddy?" He giggled. "I'm sixteen sis not a little kid anymore. "June shook her
Andrew after a few moments of doubting himself and the realness of the wish, the old woman and the family he had seen he walked out of the private jet he had flew in to the mansion he would spend his Christmas in. The mansion he had already been in but now since things seemed to have go on reverse he had to come back to it now. "Um... Boss man". Clive the driver of Andrew's cars stopped Andrew from going into his car. "What?" Andrew asked him a little annoyed. He was ready to go see his house so he could see what he was going to do with his life now. He wanted to start with the bet immediately so he could have more time to kill afterwards. "Well sir." Clive smiled apologetically looking at Andrew. "I don't know how to say this because it might make you mad." "Well it can't be not important since you've stopped me right from getting into my car and you are stalling me from going home. " " Sorry sir." Clive licked his lips as if thinking how to tell Andrew what was on his mind."We
As Andrew thought about it. His own twin brother wasn't even close to him as his driver. In fact Andrew didn't even know where Micheal was or in what condition. Neither did he really care. His family was just there for blood relation and business related business otherwise they didn't need each other."That's so sad." Clive said suddenly. "Family is important." "I have other important people in my life." Andrew said with a smile. "I have you, my assistants and my right hand man. They're close to me. Don't worry I have a family. Just not the traditional kind." "Well that's true I guess." Clive said with a sigh. "I'm glad I'm part of your family. In the non traditional sense." "Yeah me too." Andrew said with a chuckle. "Because you really make my life much easier. And you have always been a little odd but that's okay I guess.""Hey I'm not that odd." Clive said sounding a little affronted. "Or at least not that much more odd than you." "Okay that's a lie." Andrew said with a roll of
This was the reason why Clive had come up with the ridiculous idea of telling him that his house had vanished. Because he must have known his parents were here. Why didn't he just tell Andrew then? Andrew straightened himself. "Parents what are you both doing here? In my house?""You are my son." His father said looking at him like he couldn't believe what he was hearing. "We're here because we heard from your assistant what you were thinking of doing. And we've come to stop you from making such a foolish decision. You're going to have a family of your own. The normal way." "This has to stop." His mother put in. "You need to find a woman that you love. Not just go out and buy a family. It doesn't work like that." "I do love someone." Andrew said feeling a little ashamed at how he had said that as if it felt unnatural."You do?" His parents asked at the same time. Shocked as much as Clive was too who had felt his hand being grabbed by Andrew tightly. "I love him!" "What?" His pare
